Yesterday was a gorgeous day...a little windy but warm! It was so refreshing and really brought about good feelings about what's to come! In church, I felt like the minister was speaking to me personally with the message he was delivering! Thought about what I wanted to write here on the drive home!
Got home and my neighbors were outside. He offered my S and job helping him in his shop...said he had lots to keep him busy! Am sure S will learn lots from him! Again that feeling of hope rose in me! I felt like I was walking on air!
So, what I got from the service yesterday was this... He was talking about accepting Jesus into our lives. That some of us "think" we are accepting Him but that we are not really if we are hanging on to the past. If we are still living our old lives then we have not really accepted Him.
This can be compared to all of our situations. We have to accept where we are now in order to move forward. As long as we hang on to the past, we will not be able to see and experience what possibilities the future has to offer! The old saying "do as you've always done, get what you've always got" comes to mind!
He also spoke of ministering to others outside of church and you all immediately came to my mind! Those of you who to take the time to read all of our sitches and write encouraging or helpful words or even sending a hug if there are no words are ministering to others! Thank you!
I am not an eloquent writer and this all sounded so much better in my head driving home yesterday...I hope that it came out ok!
Sending hugs out there to all who need one!
